-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Greetings. For FBSD 6.1 on old Compaq DL320 and 1850R machines: 1. Is there a way to access the system BIOS, either at boot time or (preferably) from within FBSD? I'm specifically interested in seeing what the system's hardware clock is set to. 2. Is there a way to monitor the Compaq Smart Array RAID controllers and disks attached to them from within FBSD? Smartmontools is great for monitoring disk health, but no good with RAID. I don't have Compaq RAID CDs for all the machines in question, and in any event would prefer to monitor disks from within FBSD if possible. thanks dn -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (Darwin) iD8DBQFFRYXZyPxGVjntI4IRAj/rAKDIL+4dEO5boLCyyaSVRjrjiTaHlgCgxz5V 3Tdj/TWe0id1B0MLwwUEITI= =2zec -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
